Hello, I’m Maria Paola
Based in the sun-drenched island of Sardinia (Cagliari) and traveling across Italy and beyond to capture love stories.
Art has been my sanctuary and companion since childhood. Living with Type 1 Diabetes and Mixed Connective Tissue Disease (MCTD) has taught me resilience, depth, and a profound appreciation for the present moment. It is this sensitivity that guides my brush, allowing me to catch fleeting emotions, subtle light, and authentic joy as they happen.
Today, I turn your most precious celebration into timeless heirloom artwork you will treasure forever.
